"If you want a senator who's gonna lick some boots, go vote for Rogers." 🔥🔥🔥
Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social · 3h agoDr. Abdul El-Sayed: Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can feel a bit more manly by making an AI video. If you want a senator who's gonna lick some boots, go vote for Rogers. But if you want a senator who's going to stand up to Trump, you've got your option.
I encourage all of us to have the grace and focus shown in this going up within minutes of the race being called.
Absolutely thrilled. Will Lawrence has made data center resistance central to his campaign, and he's going to kick Tom Barrett's sniveling ass back to whatever rock Tom crawled out from under.
50501: The People’s Movement ❌👑@50501movement.bsky.social · 15h agoCongratulations to our 50501 Rising Star Will Lawrence (@wewill2026.bsky.social) for winning the MI-7 Primary! Another Win for We the People!
Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.
Do I know any finance director types who would be interested in a highly competitive House race gig?
I know I was extremely lucky to have parents who were loving, stable and functional, but when I listen to my wife and her adult niece discuss the absolute dysfunction of their extended family it really hits home just how fortunate I was.
Personally I would love to see Bluesky expand. It shouldn’t just be the app for leftists who can’t stand Matt Yglesias! It should also be the app for liberals who can’t stand Matt Yglesias. And apolitical folks who can’t stand Yglesias. And, yes, even conservatives who can’t stand Matt Yglesias!
Not only ESPN continues to air the McAfee show - it has gone all in on it - while it laid off number of other on-air talents. It's a joke.
Evan Sutton@evansutton.bsky.social · 2d ago"Shut up and stick to sports" crowd oddly cheering for this conspiracy crank bullshit. The Pat McAfee show is basically Fox News sponsored by ESPN. It's embarrassing that this network continues to air this claptrap.

Denny Carter@dennycarter.bsky.social · 2d agoIt’s August 2026 and Aaron Rodgers is having a full blown meltdown about Anthony Fauci.
ESPN - the home of former Confederacy's precious college conference - is now basically a crank machine for right wing's manosphere. Basically like when MTV became a shell of its former self - without playing any cool music videos. 🚮

Gonna have to update the slide in my media relations training. Just over a decade ago, this number was 3.5 to one. If you're a flack, remember this ratio. Then ask yourself what it takes to make sure that your pitches aren't just another piece of flotsam in an endless sea.

Insane that democrats keep trying to cave on this issue rather than amplifying the fact that it’s being spearheaded by bigots and freaks
Gillian Branstetter@gbbranstetter.bsky.social · 2d agoAn initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play
The failure of the Trump presidency and the exposure of right wing scams have arrested Dems’ slide with young male voters. Keeping them in the Dem coalition as insurance against resurgent fascism is a much harder problem. It can’t be solved with superficial gestures or policy chits. It’s ~~praxis~~.

The right discredited itself. The left can't win them back with beards and podcast appearances alone.

If you want a perfect capsule to demonstrate how completely divorced from reality the broligarchs and their toadies are, look only to the fact that someone thought a winning strategy is to bring a disgraced one-term NYC mayor to Wisconsin to sell angry residents a data center lol
Jessy Edwards@jessyedwards.bsky.social · 2d agoA video taken Saturday shows former NYC Mayor Eric Adams in sales pitch mode in Wisconsin Rapids, as he's heckled by residents opposed to the data center he's trying to sell them on. "My name is Eric Adams," he begins, as the boos begin to rain down. "You belong in prison!" one attendee shouts.

Demanding to examine a child's genitals for them to play sports is fucking insane

The chef's kiss is that this fever dream of bigotry was clearly generated with AI 😂🤦♂️

Know a student or new grad who's looking for work in politics? Are they a good writer? Understand social? I'm hiring a part-time fall associate. Tell 'em to HMU for the JD.
Y'all, when @tmz-news.bsky.social is giving America moral clarity about MAGA's Anthony Fauci obsession, things have clearly gone off the rails. My latest: www.altrightdelete.news/p/dysfunctio...

If @murray.senate.gov doesn't retire next year I sure hope somebody with some backbone will primary her.
Murshed Zaheed@murshedz.bsky.social · 3d agoGood Lord. Murray is actually promoting this “deal” with Susan Collins even though her own press release states Republicans rejected Democratic proposal to “protect Congress’ power of the purse and prevent Russ Vought from impounding funding and attempting another “pocket rescission.”” 🤡🤡🤡
Absolutely delighted by the extended mocking of the Cybertruck and its driver's on this week's Wait Wait. Praying @petersagal.bsky.social makes dragging Elon a weekly challenge
Be safe, friends. And don't wait for the evac to reach you. If you're downwind, find somewhere safe before you have to.
Spokane Rising@spokanerising.com · 4d agoHoly crap. Level 3 (GO NOW!) zone now includes urban Spokane, south of Francis to Wellesley. Level 2 (GET SET!) zone now extends east of Division. Not to be alarmist, but at this rate, it’s not inconceivable that the Old Trails Fire merges with the Fairview Fire.
When all the AI companies are lining up to go "oh noooo, look at what *my* super-capable AI did when I wasn't looking! It's just so powerful!" I think a dose a suspicion is warranted.
